Field‐Scale qPCR Data to Estimate Rate Constants for Toluene Biodegradation in Groundwater

Groundwater Monitoring &Remediation, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 42-50, Fall 2025.
Abstract Biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in groundwater occurs naturally and can be enhanced to support contaminated site management and remediation. Molecular biological tools can be used to assess the occurrence of biodegradation and monitor bioremediation efforts; however, the use of specific genes (i.e., biomarkers) to identify the rate ...

Rethinking Synergies and Trade‐Offs at the Forest‐Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Nexus—A Systematic Review

Sustainable Development, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 5069-5090, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Forests play a critical role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), yet their contributions are often misunderstood and inadequately addressed in the scientific discourse. This study clarifies the intricate relationships between forests and the SDGs by examining the contextual factors that influence this interplay.

Trees Enhance Rock Moisture Storage: A Major Pool in Karst Drylands and Crucial During Droughts

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Woody plant encroachment is a global phenomenon, observed in many of the world's drylands. In those with shallow soils overlying karst geology, rock moisture can be an important source of water for woody plants. This source can be particularly important for trees to maintain basic physiological functions during extended droughts, which are ...

Effects of Tree Leaves, Tannins, and Water Color on Chlorophyll Concentrations in Ponds

Hydrobiology
Leaf litter is an important input to freshwater systems. Leaves provide carbon, nutrients, and secondary compounds. We examined the effects of tree leaf species on chlorophyll a concentration—a proxy for phytoplankton biomass.

Harnessing Subsurface Flow at the Soil‐Bedrock Interface as a Hidden Water Resource for Rainwater Harvesting: Insights From Long‐Term Hydrological Monitoring on a Humid Karst Hillslope

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems are crucial for mitigating water scarcity in karst landscapes; however, their efficiency remains low even in high‐rainfall areas due to rapid infiltration and limited surface water retention. This study explores the potential of subsurface flow (SSF) at the soil‐bedrock interface as an underutilized water ...

Likelihood of Irrigation Water Efficiency and Conservation Adoption by Producers in Eastern Arkansas

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 61, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Arkansas is a leading state in groundwater use and application in the United States, as well as a top agricultural producer with a history of irrigated farming dating back over a century. Extensive monitoring of the primary irrigation water source, the Mississippi River Valley Alluvial Aquifer (alluvial aquifer), has shown a history of ...

Emerging issues and research opportunities in vadose zone processes

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
Abstract The vadose zone—the variably saturated, near‐surface environment that is critical for ecosystem services such as food and water provisioning, climate regulation, and infrastructure support—faces increasing pressures from both anthropogenic and natural factors, including changing climatic conditions. A more comprehensive understanding of vadose

Long‐term water dynamics in the Lascaux cave karst: Impact of tree removal

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
Abstract Quantifying the hydrological dynamics of unsaturated karst environments in relation to their native vegetation is a critical step in developing adaptation strategies. This study investigates the effect of tree removal on water dynamics in the Lascaux karst hill in southwestern France.

Documentation of a recharge-discharge water budget and main-streambed recharge volumes, and fundamental evaluation of groundwater tracer studies for the Barton Springs segment of the Edwards Aquifer

Texas Water Journal, 2014
Data and information reveal that the Edwards Aquifer between Lady Bird Lake (the Colorado River) in Austin, Texas and the "groundwater divide" near Kyle, Texas discharges to 2 major springs: Barton Springs and Cold and Deep Eddy Springs.
